Hell yeah. Cool.

Welcome to the forum, sir!

Alright! We're like porn!

Matt "Fayda" Vayda, everyone. You'll hear his voice again soon enough.

"Circles for balloons, angles for house = Elli giving him wings..."

Holy shit.

A lot of listeners will recall that I don't have much experience with Star Trek, and that when I saw Undiscovered Country for Down in Front, it was literally my very first exposure to Trek at all. Immediately afterward I saw the Abrams movie.

I really liked the Abrams movie. I was talking over Undiscovered Country, so I can't say I didn't like it, but I don't recall being distracted by how cool it seemed.

At some point after, I watched some episodes of TNG and found it to be stunningly boring. In recent months, I've seen some episodes of the original series, and have enjoyed it more than TNG, but less than the new movie.

In conclusion, I clearly know more about Star Trek than Brian and think he's being ridiculous by saying the new Trek is anything but the best of the series.

Nobody help him; he has to learn.

Yeah, this is one that we're aware of. I haven't had the time to fix it myself - so if you know of anyone who can go through the forum CSS and find that attribute, change it to something more visible, shoot me an email and I'll getcha some access.

Another thing that bugs me is that the header text inside of a sticky thread's title is black, so that (for instance, in the Off Topic forum) the "Links" sticky appears to be floating way right....when really it's just next to black text that says "Sticky:".

I'm just kind of blown away by Jeffrey right now. You're bordering on RedLetterMedia (The Phantom Menace review guy) with that shit.

However, I do think we should move this to its own thread. If you have a reply (I hope someone does) on the subject of Star Trek, post it in that thread.

Actually, it is that - the problem is that the refresh button (or F5) doesn't reload every file on the page, it...well I don't know what it does, but it's not actually making the browser re-download every asset on the page.

Cross posted from the TFN board thread:

Ctrl-F5 on a PC will force the browser to literally refresh everything, and that'll do it. You can also Clear Recent / Cache on most browsers. The way the DiF site uses the clientside cache sometimes causes this problem, we're still sorta working on that bit.

A little-known workaround is that the website is set up to have dedicated pages for every episode. (I just like to link to the home page because it has the recent-episodes sliding interface.) www.downinfront.net/episode/ is the directory, and typing in a number will take you straight to the episode in question. Up is 46.

...holy shit, dude. That's awesome!

I just alerted Serge to this discussion, maybe he'll weigh in on it. I'm finding hidden benefits in being on a podcast with listeners smarter than I am. This is interesting.
